Burglars steal from the same Belmont Gardens warehouse twice in a day: police

Thieves stole from the same Belmont Gardens warehouse twice in one day.

Two males snuck through an unlocked warehouse door Dec. 21, took merchandise from the shelves and left, Chicago police said. One of them came back later in the day with a backpack and took additional items.

Both burglaries happened in the 4000 block of West Diversey Avenue, police said. The first was between 12:30 a.m. and 12:15 p.m., and the second was about 9:46 p.m.

One suspect was described as 18 to 24 years old, 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-8 and 140 to 160 pounds, police said. He had curly hair and was wearing a blue jacket and black pants.

The other was 18 to 24 years old, 5-foot-6 to 6-feet tall and 140 to 170 pounds. He had short hair and was wearing a black jacket and black pants.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Area North detectives at 312-744-8263.
